Crucial Judgment in the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) Will Determine Who Bears the Burden of Producing Evidence in Lawsuits Related to PASEP, Whether the Bank of Brazil or the Server.
The Superior Court of Justice (STJ) resumed, on this Tuesday (10), the analysis of Theme 1300, an issue of extreme relevance for public servants. The judgment will define who has the responsibility to prove the accuracy of PASEP transfers: the Bank of Brazil or the server themselves. Sindireceita is monitoring the proceedings and suggests content to clarify the subject.
The Burden of Proof Under Discussion at the STJ
The central issue of the judgment at the STJ is to define the burden of proof in the PASEP actions. The court’s decision will establish whether it is the Bank of Brazil that must demonstrate the accuracy of the deposits or if this responsibility lies with the server filing the action. The topic is of great importance for the members of Sindireceita.
Progress of the Judgment and Vote in Favor of Servants
The judgment had already been resumed on the last August 13. At that time, Minister Afrânio Vilela issued a vote in favor of the servers. He understood that the burden of proof should be attributed entirely to the Bank of Brazil. After his position, the reporting minister of the case requested a new view, signaling that she was receptive to the arguments presented.
